Thomas Murray led home the Category winners. His nett 67 one shot better than Master Joe Rooney for first prize in Catgory 1.

Gerard Rooney's better back nine was the difference between wining Category 2 afte Sean Brannigan recorded the very same score.

And in Category 3 it was a similar story with Sean T. Dougan winning on countback from Aidan McParland who both recorded scores of net 68.

Neil Cromwell produced the Best Gross score on the day – 71.
